Description

The Tswana version of Ordinary people in God’s plan, the second book in the Tell, tell!-series. It tells the Old Testament stories from Israels’ entrance into the Promised Land up to the closing remarks on expecting the coming Messiah of the New Testament. The stories are about judges, kings, prophets, priests and poets, women and men, old and young, ordinary people like us, called and used in God’s plan of salvation.

The Tell, tell! approach is based on a rediscovery of the value of imaginative listening to stories and the pleasure in retelling them for the process of faith formation – “listen, imagine, tell and enjoy”. Each book in the series is prefaced by a description of the methodology and the course to follow during the lessons – no approach can be simpler! Additional resources for applying and integrating the lessons are also included. Groups of children between the age of 8 and 16 will benefit the most from these stories. It will be useful for Sunday School education, youth ministry, but also for faith formation at home. Even students and adults may find this very useful for Bible Study and fellowship groups.
